Aftrernoon Tea

Hi look at the great biscuits Glenda cooked for afternoon Tea I should resist them but they are just to nice.Having a break from painting as I just finished the hallway and on Monday we have a carpenter coming to put on a new sliding door to our bathroom and a new back door also getting some more lights put into two spare bedrooms and a couple of new light switches so it will be all go so long as the rain keeps away.

I am going well to as I do my last chemo on the 12 Jan that is five more weeks and then after that a colonascophy just to make sure everything is OK but I am sure it is as I am putting on weight all the time.

Still painting

Still painting finished the hallway yesterday and today went down to Ballarat to get new reading glasses the make a difference and tomorrow its back in for chemo as I said I will be glad when its all done then the joints should stop moaning.We have had a lot of rain and the creek is up down the back the gums are in the middle of the creek so I am waiting for one to fall over.

Slowly getting there

Well only 6 more weeks to go with the chemo boy am I counting them down as you well know that I hate the big needle they put into the back of my hand.just started working on our passage way filled all the holes and now I have to wait until it drys before I sand it down and put on the undercoat that will be Fridays job to start the undercoat and sanding.

On the Downward slide

Today means only 7 more treatments and boy am I counting them down this means I Finnish in the middle of January cant wait then I hope all the aches that I get from it will go.Just finished painting another bedroom and now it is being refurbished as we sold the big bunks in there and bought a new double bed and some bedside tables and new touch lamps,new curtains so it has all come together very well now its start all over again in another room but if it gets to hot I will wait untill it cools down.

Half Way Point You Beauty

Today was the half way point of my chemo ten weeks to go with those big needles and five more blood tests and today the Professor told me that I will have to do a Ultrasound to make sure the treatment is not affecting my liver.I have put back the weight so its now on a diet and to do a walk each morning and in the afternoon I use the walking machine and then the vibrating machine this helps the circulation and is supposed to take of weight.

The New Friend

I decided to have the weekend off so we went to Yarrawonga for a break away from the work at home the weather was perfect and it was the first time Glenda has had a stone grill it was yummy and then I won $88 in one drop of the machine I was only playing one coin as it was getting low should have been two never mind that's the luck of the draw.

When we arrived home our new friend was out to greet us and he is getting used to us as he no longer heads back into the drain just keeps an eye on us as we pass.

Nice Day

A great day again and today we lifted the carpet and found that it was on top of lino then when we got the lino out underneath was lots of 1959 sun newspaper boy did I have a ball reading the ads and some of the stories brought back memories even Prince Charles when he was a boy but the best part is it is imprinted onto the floor very strange.Then latter I went outside and here was this massive Lizard sunning on the grass I kept an eye on him and out popped a second one but I only got a photo of one.I found the roof has still got a drip as I could hear it so its of with the roof again as soon it gets fine its a real problem might have to replace a few sheets of iron but that's a summertime job.
